Item seems OK, seems to do what it says though I would need to use more before fully deciding.
What I found the hardest was putting the 8mm film through the converter, probably because I have largish hands the space is very small. I also found it very difficult to see in the converter area as very dark and hard to see, had to get a torch in my mouth to help. It would also really help if some sort of brake could be put on the feeding wheel whilst you threaded the film as that spins loosely causing the film to move too much causing problems in the initial set up because the film was loose
The instructions could be more helpful in my opinion, had to go online to find help.
Once the film was in with the door closed the rest was very easy to do and started the job as described. The end product on the Super8mm was jerky in places, seems the film sometimes is pulled back a frame after a few forward moves giving a black line occasionally. That could be me and once I have used a few more times I may have a different end result. Bit pricy in my opinion for what it is and does!
The end product quality (definition) is what I expected from old film, was viewable.
Like that it saves to MP format so editing can be later.
As a 70 year old, i have been thinking of doing something about the box of 8mm films my father took in the 1960s. I have been put off by many reviews and the price of the machines, but what price do you put on childhood memories? So i opted for the movie maker pro, purely because of the frame rate speed of 20 fps, which was the closest to the original fps of 18 of the original film. The machine worked perfectly and once the SD card formatted on my pc, we were up and running!
one problem that arose, was with damaged film stock. But with this machine you can record from the broken ends of films.It does record as separate mpegs,but at least you don’t loose any film footage!
The Kedok 8mm & Super 8 to Digital MovieMaker is an amazing piece of kit to have at home to save your precious memories in a timeless digital format before they get lost or simply degrade with time. Magnetic film is forever decaying and losing quality year on year, being able to convert them to a digital format and save them on your PC or Phone is a very emotional but essential process.
The machine from Kedok makes simple and easy work of that. Simple load up your old film, run it through the film scanner and let the machine do it’s thing. With hardly any input it runs through the whole reel and records everything, you can then decide what to do with your new MP4 versions of your old treasured family videos.
They are great for sharing with friends and family and reminiscing about times of old.
This cine film digital converter is easy to use and produces an excellent reproduction in a MP4 format. I was able to to view my first film within one of receiving my unit from Amazon. Straight forward instructions very easy to follow. Seems to be well built so hopefully get many of my old films converted.
A great product to bring back memory of good old days:
easy to use
simple to store
great to enjoy
The image quality is very impressive though I’m not saying perfect. The transfer rate is a bit low but please do not watch closely just for nothing – let it go and enjoy overnight.
I have been using it for weeks, quality product to recommend.
We are moving into a digital world now and really we do not need to store all our old stuff. Well, it saved a lot 8 mm film from being lost – saving me a lot space and hassles.
Having just inherited a bunch of reels of film from my grandparents I decided I wanted to convert all of that footage into something that was a lot more usable so that meant digitising it and then being able to play with it on my PC to put it all together and make something that was usable for the whole family come out the only way to do that is to buy yourself a digitizer and this has been the best option so far.
You simply place your film on on one end of the digitizer push it through and it pulls everything through digitising it as it plays, it’s a rather slow process but one that is necessary in order to both not damage the film but also gain the quality that you should expect from digitising any older film.
We’ve converted everything straight over into MP fours which are now underway on being checked on a PC as well as quite a few adaptations to make them more watchable for a whole family overall it’s been a very simple straight forward process that does take a little bit time but it’s worth it in the end.
I use this device to convert 8 mm home movies from the 50s through the 70s to digital video (MPEG4). It doesn’t take long to get the hang of it. It is much more cost effective to do it yourself instead of paying thousands of pounds sending them out somewhere. The results are actually really impressive. The image quality is as good as the film you run through it.
I have had experience with using film editing software , so I already had extensive background knowledge and the software before I began. This is a very simple machine that puts our high quality recordings. The transfer rate is rather slow, each minute of film takes about 10 minutes to transfer, but it really does not need to be watched as closely. It saved hundreds of 8 mm film from being lost due to age.
When we get dicided get our own converter I bit worried the quality and will I manage to use it. Had to say that was very pleasantly surprised the simple instructions and how easy it was.
Image quality also great, if the film not too much damaged then it’s clean.
It has led display where can set up the settings. Scanned films saved in MP4 format to SD card.
On back it has usb slot, TV out slot, memory cards slot and power adapter entry.
I use take for smaller projects to local photostudio now can do them at home as well, without spending extra.
Good quality and simple to use.
Long time wanted to convert out old films to digital however conversion price and complexity put me off. Finally per advice decided to but one which suitable with various reels.
Got this one which can use various sizes. also usage is very simple, not complex, straight forward. It doesn’t need to be professional or have a filming editing background. its just putting the film right way and plugging memory card. By the way memory card also included in the box.
Good decent quality conversion, image colours and clarity well balanced.
I will say its nice device which anyone can do without any filming professional background.
This is easy to use. It includes the memory card and can take large reels. Once digitised the movie can be viwed on the built in display. You can easily adjust the framing and the menu is easy to use. Any questions then you will get a quick response from customer service who are very helpful. Excellent value for money.
Can’t fault DO ONE COMPANY. 8mm movie converter was a gift but when opened on 2nd April the take up spool was warped. Seller messaged the same day and an immediate replacement was offered, this arrived on 5th April with no requirement to return the original item so all sorted in 3 days.
This is an easy to use converter straight from the box, with clear film loading instructions; frame and exposure adjustments can be made before conversion starts. Some care needed when using the control buttons as it is a little ‘front heavy’. The 3″ 7″and 9″ take up spools are not included in package and if required need to be purchased separately.
A 30yr old 3 minute super 8 movie was successfully converted with no problems, taking approximately 30 minutes. Image is grainy when played back on smart tv but quality on tablet & smart phone is very good.
The results with a 60yr old 200ft standard 8 film were varied, but I think this is probably due to the age and condition of the film.
Good result again with a 40yr old super 8 400ft film, though an annoying squeak developed during this conversion which I’ve attributed to the size of the larger take up spool I had to purchase.
A large stack of reels still waiting to be digitised so only time will tell if the converter is up to the job.
All in all a neat piece of kit.
Bought it to convert all my childhood movie memories and the converter is exactly as described! I love it! I’m already on my third reel and things are going great. I can’t really find any negative things to say about it. The whole process is really too simple.
I have transferred over 20 films so far. I have both 8mm, and super 8mm films that I have ran through it. So far I have only used the SD card transfers then downloaded them to my PC.Over all though, it has proved worth the money to save these unreplaceable memories from my wife and I family.
